Hôtel Colbert de Torcy, Private mansion in 2nd arrondissement of Paris, France.

The structure features four arcaded facades on the ground floor with semicircular arches decorated with a Doric frieze and colossal order elements.

Built in 1640 by architect Pierre Le Muet, this building initially belonged to Jacques Tubeuf, president of the Paris Chamber of Accounts.

The private mansion represents a transitional period in French architecture, preceding the establishment of Louis XIV classical style.

The building stands at 16 Rue Vivienne, in a district containing numerous historical monuments of Parisian architectural heritage.

The four facades of the building form a coherent architectural ensemble with decorative elements that demonstrate Pierre Le Muet's early works.
